Your toddler can help science!

[Guest guest]

The University of Washington Toddler Assessment Project is looking

for 18-30 month with definite or possible delays in language, motor,

and or cognitive skills, including children with known genetic

disorders, to participate in a study of development. (Note: we are

not looking for children with autism or suspected autism.)

Parents will bring their child to UW for up to 5 visits in which play

based and table top testing of skills will take place.

Eligible children will get a full developmental assessment (free of

charge) and a written report documenting their child's skills.

Families receive up to $125.00 for their time.

Clinicians will also provide referrals for services available in the

community.

Participation will help researchers better understand early

behavioral and biological signs of developmental delay and autism,

including better understanding of early brain development. This will

help us better understand why children with developmental delay and

autism have the challenges they do. A second goal of the study is to

better identify children with developmental delay and autism very

early in life. Your family's participation directly benefits science!
